Has anyone ever had a pilonidal cyst on their tailbone?

Q: I have had a cyst on my tailbone for a while, but it was small and was never painful. Then, after I gave birth to my son, it was so aggitated that it when from the size of a pea to the size of a golf ball in two days. I had it drained (I know this is gross!) and thought it had gone away. However, in the last few days the same spot has been sore and a lump has grown in size. Its been two months or more since I had it last. If any of you have had this before…how do you get rid of it? Or can’t you? Because I thought draining it would remove it…and it obiviously didn’t. Have any of you found a way to reduce the pain, as sitting is very uncomfortable?

A: These things have a tendency to recur and drain again and again. Check with a surgeon to have it removed. Hot soaks in a sitz bath will give temporary relief
